Read or reread
some of the titles that have achieved classic status in children's literature.
As you read, consider whether these works are still of interest to and
will appeal to today's young people or should be retained primarily as
historical artifacts. Be prepared to justify your opinion in discussion
with colleagues. Also consider how you feel about revised/rewritten versions
of such classics. Wherever possible, I have provided a link to an electronic
text version of the book.
